Better Slow

Talladega's made for racing

Tearing that Alabama pavement up

Whiskey's made for getting there quick

When the cold beer ain't enough

We wish away nineteen and twenty

Just to get to twenty-one

But lately I've been realizing

When it's all said and done

Some things like a ride in paw paw's truck

Some things like a deer stand sun coming up

Some things you don't need faster

Like a tractor blocking the road

Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back

Some things you better make 'em last

Some things arе worth soaking in

'Cause you just never know

Likе the hug you give you mama right before you go

Some things are better slow

From five o'clock on Friday

'Til that Sunday sun goes down

How your Goodyears roll

When you know

You got the hottest thing in town

How you float down a small-mouth river

When your limit's just one more

How you pet your dog

That's barely holding on

After twelve years on the porch

Yeah, some things like a ride in paw paw's truck

Some things like a deer stand sun coming up

Some things you don't need faster

Like a tractor blocking the road

Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back

Some things you better make 'em last

Some things are worth soaking in

'Cause you just never know

Like the hug you give you mama right before you go

Some things are better slow

Just like sand through an hourglass

Some things fly by too fast

Yeah, some things like a ride in paw paw's truck

Some things like a deer stand sun coming up

Some things you don't need faster

Like a tractor blocking the road

Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back

Some things you better make 'em last

Some things are worth soaking in

'Cause you just never know

Like the hug you give you mama right before you go

Some things are better slow

Slow

Better slow
